A convicted sex offender who had lived in Conway County was arrested on Thursday for failing to register at his new address as required by state law, a Pope County Sheriff's Office (PCSO) officer testified during bond hearings on Friday.

Chad Brock, 25, had previously reported 2222 Davis Road in Atkins as his address. A Conway County Sheriff's Office (CCSO) officer called the PCSO with suspicions Brock was currently living in Morrilton, a PCSO testified.

The officer told District Court Judge Don Bourne he investigated the residence and found that Brock had not lived there in about four weeks. A Conway County Sheriff's officer arrested Brock, and he was allegedly brought to the Pope County Detention Center.

Brock is out on bond for the same crime in Conway County, a PCSO officer testified.

Brock was allegedly convicted in May 2011 for the sexual solicitation of a 12-year-old child and was labeled as a Level 2, or moderate risk, sex offender.

According to the Arkansas Crime Information Center (ACIC), any person who fails to report changes of address shall be guilty of a Class C felony.

Bourne set Brock's bond at $15,000, and he is scheduled to appear in Circuit Court on Nov. 3.
